Consult your Doctor: You are taking bronchodilaters and corticosteroids, but we do not know what dosage, how often and how long and what kind of meds are you taking.There are other questions about your asthma severity, if it is mild, moderate or severe asthma is treated with combination of controller meds like steroids(inhaled)and occasionally oral, and montelucast oraly and reliever meds long/short acting bronchodilaters.

Asthma: I see you have a bronchodilator and corticosteroid in your med list. You need to take them on a daily basis . Maintain yourself with the inhaled steroids at least three months and use bronchodilator as a rescue inhaler if you are well controlled. Re-evaluate then . Otherwise follow instructions as per pcp. Singulair or montelukast may be added as a maintenance
